How many blocks were premined and how many coins in those blocks?

I'll be watching this one. I like Elemental coins.

140, 200k -

Dumb name, dumb logo. How does "ice" imply any sort of value?

No preannounce either. Sloppy launch.. Yawn. These days your coins needs a solid launch to even considered being looked at, imo.

No nodes.  0 connections.

It's named "ice" because OP is Aquaman!

every heard of a zip file?? downloading all these seperate files from mega pain in the ass

Yes, it will be soon  :)

relaunch the coin

someone just jumped on with a farm



{
"blocks" : 183,
"currentblocksize" : 0,
"currentblocktx" : 0,
"difficulty" : 0.00390625,
"errors" : "",
"generate" : false,
"genproclimit" : -1,
"hashespersec" : 0,
"networkhashps" : 13158600,
"pooledtx" : 0,
"testnet" : false
}

Wait, so it has about the same amount of coins as BTC, and 200k were premined? And how where 200k coins produced from 140 blocks if its 10 coins per block? Maybe I didn't read it correctly but that's what it appears is being said?

I also see no mention of any new features / sites to use at /  etc so not sure how it has solid "support". I don't mind a new coin to try but it needs to at least have some kinda of use or gimmick at the least to keep interest. Like at least PXC has the poker and escrow sites...

code can be changed so that certain blocks have higher rewards.  have seen a coin that started with 2 premined blocks...of 1,000,000 coins per block.  Don't remember which one that was.

It only takes a few decent users to get to 13MH/s, not sure that really qualifies as a farm

only orphans here  :(

Accepting donations HZno8yN7iRFrG2fPNXS2E4V6cXkCocPW6H   ;D

seems nothing new for this one, just yet another coin...

should really be put into the 厕 (toilet), as dev's name indicated ;D

holy hash rate jump batman

 :D

Download is deleted at Mega.com...

github source not there??

"We couldn't find any repositories matching 'icecoin'"

It's dead Jim  ;D

was there but now it 404s, seems like a failed launch?

The X Files... Where did they go?

That was one of the quickest failed launches I've ever seen

GhostCoin ... ???

wait for it....

I really like the arch of this launch. It didn't waste much of my time from the announcement until the end of the thread (1 page later) when it was dead. I think these coins are getting much better!  Soon the birth to death timelines will become so short these morons won't even launch them... we can only hope..

Back on PhenixCoin :)

yes, why are the files all removed?? strange

By OP... Says enough :)

it was a trojan, stealing your shizzznaz

shhh! that's the next one

that's me done I'm happy with my 1 mined block ;D

no source code??? beware of trojans!!

It's a new way of pump & dump!

First launch it, so it looks like a fair launch.
Then "accidently" remove the github and the binaries.

Put all your miners on it to premine.

Put the github and binaries back.

Look innocent.

No binaries too, so no trojans  ;D

Anyway we may try this new coin...

I've added a new p2pool.

Here are the parameters:

cgminer --scrypt -o next.afraid.org:8115 -u yourICEaddress -p . --queue 0 -s 1

statistics available here: http://next.afraid.org:8115. This pool uses a PPLNS payout scheme, and is stratum enabled. The PPLNS window is set to only one hour.

3% fee at this time. (it may be set to a lower value in the future)

Source code removed?  Binaries removed?  Egads, this probably mean only one thing.... an imminent "relaunch", like the sad Zenithcoin saga....

yup, hashrate went thru the roof just as the files disappeared too.

JUNK.

As with Disneyworld and BTC, nothing is perfect from the get go, we are working on what has happened and will be back up and running shortly. Better to re-launch with any issues fixed. -

Closed -

Nice very nice!  Is this a record?

What happened?  It would be to your benefit to explain what you saw that made you pull everything.
Do you plan to announce the next one prior to release, or do you plan an instant-launch again?

There have been many examples of poor launches lately but a couple have done a better job of attempting a fair, pre-announced, non-premined, non-instamined coin.  If you want any chance at success, please consider following their examples.

Called it!

pathetic.. looks like Chinese people can't launch shit properly

Were are currently putting a new code together to stop hogging of of the blocks, in lamens terms.

 Yes, it will be re-launched shortly, poor launches dont mean its a failed coin, that concept is taken way too seriously here. When all is fixed and good to go, I will open the Post and let everyone know! :)

Its only giving us the opportunity to make it better :)

Announce: "Temporarily closed while we mine the shit out of it"

You fail at coins.

I'm mining the coin just fine.  Have 13 connections right now.  Should I post the binaries?  I didn't get the source code though.  

Edit: Actually I probably don't want to post the binaries.  Because if there was something wrong with them, someone might try to say I changed them or I was the one that put the malware in them.  

2nd Edit:  On 3rd thought, I'll just post them with a disclaimer.  Binaries are being uploaded now.  I'll post link in a moment. 

And what about this, AquaMan?

binaries?

>who goes there?

I downloaded the source and compiled it on Ubuntu before Aquaman pulled the source from github.

Looking at the source code now, I wonder if what went "wrong" is that someone successfully overwrote the early blockchain and "stole" Aquaman's intended premine.  The source code clearly intended the first five blocks as the developer's premine:
but failed to include any hardcoded checkpoints.

Given the low initial difficulty, someone with high initial hashing power, or some lead time on getting the source code, could have mined from block zero and grabbed those first 5 blocks.

I would hope if there is a relaunch that there is also a new genesis block

Here is a link to the binaries that were originally in the OP.

Disclaimer:  I am simply reposting these.  I have no idea if they are clean.  Please scan yourself, and run in a sandboxed environment.  I have not altered these in anyway whatsoever.  If there is any issue with them, blame OP (Aquaman). 

i dont think many blocks have even been mined as yet, why were the binaries removed and then put back anyway? what was the point of it?

Not sure.  We're sitting at block 413 as of this post. 

Odd.  I asked point-blank what the premine was and you can see the reply was 140 block for 200,000 coins.  This tells me one of a couple things.  OP Lied when asked the question, or didn't know.  I'm not sure which is a bigger concern.

Not sure why anyone would be interesting in this in the least, but to each his own.

We need a page to track all the alts and how fast they failed, at least Aquaman will be successful at something then.

It clearly wasn't 140 blocks.  Looks like 5 blocks, for a total of 250,000?

And as to your second question about why anyone would be mining this: Because cryptsy will add it, and then we'll be rich! ;)

OP didnt hardcode any checkpoints, and someone stole his premine. Hilarious.

This forum is fucking amateur hour, I swear. Stop releasing coins if you dont know what youre doing. :D

A simple webpage listing every altcoin in chron order, its start date, and linking its main thread here on the forum would be super useful, wouldn't it?

Wait , wait someone stole dev's premine  ? This is epic...

so own up who took the 250k coins?  start a giveaway at the least

I love dem altcoins... until you realize that it failed miserably and the premined coins got stolen.

because its a garbage coin

Yes, totally agree 5 * 50,000.  On your second point...  GL with that!  :)

Your description says you have community support.... you and your dog =\= community support

well at least he could compile it for windows, better than some that launch here. Guess all the great support and things that will out do dgc etc are not going to happen if the dev doesn't have any incentive with the 250k coins getting taken.

Ah well it was fun as always mining a few blocks solo. I know most of these are going to be worth nothing but i'm addicted to trying to instamine a few blocks it's like the rush of sniping on ebay. I think im ill in someway.

I heard this is much better than VanillaIceCoin!

I do have to admit I considered posting a pic, but restrained myself.

All shit clone coins since FTC always claim community support instead of actual innovation.
It's a nice way of saying "I'm stupid and this is a scam, but if we all look the other way we can make easy money".

+1

any luck mining this?

so i have to create a mega account to get this? tia!

Pfff, you could copy and paste any coin, give it a shitty name and a shitty logo, and people will still act like it will be the next big thing. Ooops, there I go, trolling the shit coins again. Quick, retards, rally together to protect it!!

i wouldn't do that if i were u..

You have a lot of time on your hand.  hmm.. Ditto for me..I just want a good coin to be released.   Something like WDC
